In our second episode of Babies Know, Peter Walker and Jenna Rutherford take a look at a baby's journey from birth to twelve weeks.  It's a time of unique opportunity to lay foundations for emotional, physical and physiological development. A magical time of brain plasticity and how a baby experiences this time shapes their development moving forward.  This is where we explore the power of touch for parents and their babies and the deep and lasting impact it has on them.

In our first episode of Babies Know, Peter Walker and Jenna Rutherford talk about a baby's first touch from the womb into the world. Peter believes that we all come into this world looking to make friends and a baby experiencing a loving touch can communicate that to them. This episode looks at touch, feeling and bonding between the mother and their baby in utero and how this is the first steps in building that solid foundation for a baby's emotional and physical development, where they can grow strong roots for life.
